this 300hr training is designed to allow students to perform<br />
reflexology. every single part of the body is connected to the<br />
reflexes on the feet. By stimulating these reflex points through<br />
the feet we can help the body promote healing, reduce stress,<br />
open meridians and release and eliminate toxins. reflexology<br />
is used as a preventative medicine. at the end of the 8 week<br />
training, each student will be responsible for completion of an<br />
independent study after which they will receive a certification<br />
certificate. students will have the opportunity to work in a clinical<br />
setting to complete their independent study. reflexology<br />
is a wonderful modality to add to any existing body workers<br />
tool kit. massage therapists, nurses, caregivers, energy workers,<br />
salon and spa owners and anyone looking for a second<br />
income opportunity should consider taking this course. students<br />
should have a basic understanding of bodywork with a<br />
natural approach. more info can be found at reflexology-usa.<br />

meditation, expansion and moving inward. Pranayama<br />
and asana prepare us physically and emotionally<br />
to move into deep meditation. although deep<br />
meditation is possible on its own, the physical<br />
preparation that hatha yoga offers its practitioners<br />
allows the journey to be more intentional. awareness<br />
of prana as a guide and a tool allows us to<br />
make decisions to meditate in a certain way and also<br />
allows us to stay there longer. this final weekend<br />
brings it all together and will give you with understanding<br />
of not only how to practice but why. you<br />
will leave with a path towards a deeper practice and<br />
the tools to modify that practice as your life shifts.<br />

kirtan is the yogic tradition of devotional chanting.<br />
we will combine traditional and original chants with<br />
a western groove and exotic rhythms to create a<br />
uniquely mesmerizing sound experience. kirtan is<br />
not a concert, but a participatory event. everyone is<br />
encouraged to sing with the musicians in a call-andresponse<br />
style format which is designed to take the<br />
participants from the external world into the realm<br />
of pure experience. kirtan chants are sung in sanskrit<br />
invoking hindu deities in a palette of energies<br />
that can range from contemplative to ecstatic. kirtan<br />
is not about musical ability but rather the experience<br />
of exploring one’s inner world by becoming<br />
absorbed in sound.<br />
Instructor: Matthew Falkowski, RYT<br />
Matthew Falkowski has been practicing and teaching<br />
yoga for 15 years. He has a 500 hour professional<br />
level certification in the Prana Kriya Tradition and<br />
teaches weekly at his wife’s studio in Manchester CT.<br />
He continues to study and practice Tantric Hatha<br />
Yoga under the guidance of Yoganand Michael Carroll.<br />
He also teaches modules in Yoganands professional<br />
level training and regularly teaches workshops in<br />
pranayama and yogic philosophy which are imbued<br />
with the beauty of his singing and guitar playing.<br />
Matthew believes that a balance can be found between<br />
what renunciate yogis practice and the demands of<br />
our modern life. By understanding this balance we can<br />
learn to create a richer experience right now, moving<br />
through the world with deeper “aliveness”.<br />

welcome to yoga nidra or “yogic sleep”, a relaxation<br />
and meditation practice that permits a state of mind<br />
between wakefullness and dream. as one opens the<br />
deeper phases of the mind and moves between different<br />
levels of consciousness, it is possible to burn away<br />
old samskaras, or habits and tendancies, and find a<br />
restorative rest equivalent to several hours of deep<br />
sleep. wear layers of clothing that allow for movement<br />
for a gentle warm-up and perhaps bring a pillow to<br />
rest your head.<br />

i’ve got a huge wish list of classes i<br />
want to take! i’ve been looking through<br />
the catalog for years and finally have<br />
the time for a pottery class! the main<br />
reason i enjoy coming here is for my<br />
own self discovery and healing.<br />
tiffany cUnninghaM<br />
i love this place! it gives me an outlet<br />
for my creativity that i don’t get in<br />
my everyday life.<br />

“me” time.<br />
sean kane<br />
a student since 2005<br />
i really appreciate the opportunity<br />
to attend pottery classes and use<br />
the time to hand build with clay. i<br />
love the resource library and have<br />
referred to it on many occasions.<br />
i’ve been creating all kinds of<br />
things, from cookie jars, to<br />
book ends, candle holders and<br />
name plaques for my friends. i’ve<br />
also enjoyed many other classes<br />
here including drumming circles,<br />
yoga and i’m looking forward<br />
to kirtan!”<br />
